Pi-hole doesn't seem to work if using Google Chrome

Pi-hole doesn't seem to work if using Google Chrome; :frowning:

I tested the speedtest.net page: on firefox, all advertisements disappear when pi-hole is active. :slight_smile:

On the other hand on Google Chrome, it continues to appear :frowning:

I think google chrome uses its own dns servers which bypasses pi-hole.

Does anyone have a solution to force the removal of ads on Google Chrome?

Chrome has support for secure DNS. I’m not sure if it defaults to enabled. You can check the setting under Settings - Privacy and security - Security

So, I do not use Chrome (I use Brave); but I installed it on a PC, just for this, and tried speedtest.net. Secure DNS was enabled by default. I tried speedtest.net (Secure DNS was enabled by default):

No ads.
I even let the PC get the DNS server from Pi-hole instead of setting it manually in its network settings. No ads.
So I used my iPhone as a hotspot and, ads.

Are you using a Chromebook? Are you using a router behind your modem?

Just block clients from accessing DoH to prevent this kind of issue
